OHB are/were a supergroup of sorts with the inclusion of Ken Stringfellow and Mitch Easter. Their last album was recorded by Mitch Easter and according to Mitch there is supposed to be another due anytime from those same recording sessions from some 2-3 years ago. Mariani was in 2 seminal Aussie garage pysch pop bands The Stems and the Lime Spiders. Mather I believe was also in the Lime Spiders. They were pretty similar in sound to the Hoodoo Gurus. Both of them later went on to form the Someloves just prior to going their separate ways again. Most of their stuff from the Someloves on is leans more towrd power pop, maybe more like the Posies thgat that psych sound. Incredibly melodic hook laden music. Also on notable Aussie bands, did no one not mention the Go-Betweens?<< Wow, this is another seemingly endless thread I can get behind....THE MIGHTY STEMS, DM3,Summer Suns,Someloves,OHB,Lime Spiders....Dom Mariani is just about flawless in his grasp on that pop thang....his new project is somewhere along the lines of the Stonefish surf insto thing he did about ten /twelve years ago...I think he's calling it The Majestic Kelp...the way those meticulous Oz maniacs work(that Humble record taking about three years in the production, the single's out, done in Memphis @ Ardent...horns n all!!!!) we might ...MIGHT... see it someday!

Very > juvenile. how many murderers become famous? someone who kills someone robbing a liquor store is probably doing so out of greed or desparation. killing a celebrity or shooting up your high school are vain attempts at perverted glory. they aren't even comparable in terms of motivation. no one has to take his name away. it's just a shame that we bother remembering it. and it has nothing to do with john lennon; the same would apply if he'd killed kathie lee gifford (except he'd be more popular with his fellow inmates). ===== "[I]t's important for the maintenance of consensus that some people keep on being scared of what might happen and probably won't; otherwise, they would not be such easy prey for what can happen and actually has.
